Chapter 618 Acquaintances in the Southern Region, Opening the Path of Chaos!
Chapter 618 Acquaintances in the Southern Region, Opening the Path of Chaos! (Three-in-One)
Li Hao had previously heard of the Chaos Law at the Su family. Mastering the Chaos Law, even if one is still at the Immortal Lord Realm, is no different from being at the Immortal King Realm compared to other Immortal Lord Realm cultivators. They are difficult to resist, and the difference in power is enormous.
However, even if one masters the laws of chaos, there is still a considerable gap between them and a true Immortal King. After all, the difference between realms and laws represents a qualitative leap!
"You're a beginner, you should get to know your senior brothers and sisters."
After Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor finished explaining cultivation to Li Hao, he raised his hand and gently pointed in the void. A strange Emperor Realm fluctuation appeared, like a drop of water seeping into a tranquil lake.
With a pop, six vortexes slowly appeared in the void.
Soon, three of the vortexes began to change, and a blurry figure emerged behind them, gradually becoming clearer until it revealed its true form, like a projection or an avatar descending.
"Disciple pays homage to Master."
Three figures emerged from the vortex and immediately bowed respectfully to the Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor in the hall.
"We've taken on a new junior brother for you. Get to know him so you can take care of each other in the future."
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor said casually.
The three of them turned their heads and looked at Li Hao in the hall, and soon surprise appeared in their eyes.
They were all quasi-emperors, and they could immediately sense the fluctuations in Li Hao's soul power emanating from him, even though he had only been around for a little over a hundred years.
However, his cultivation level is at the third level of the Immortal Lord realm!
Another prodigy... The three of them showed slight changes in their expressions, but quickly regained their composure.
As disciples of the master, none of them are anything but prodigies; the only difference is the degree of their talent. Even with some disparity, they are still among the most outstanding talents in the world.
Once they reach the Quasi-Emperor realm, they no longer value talent. Even if they possess extraordinary talent, if they cannot comprehend the Emperor realm and forge their own Emperor path, they will ultimately remain confined to the mortal world.
"Haotian greets his senior brothers and sisters."
Li Hao was amazed and was also observing the three senior brothers and sisters, two men and one woman, all of whom, like Su Zhenyuan, had a restrained and profound aura.
Quasi-Emperor Realm... Just one step away from reaching the Immortal Emperor Realm and stepping into the ultimate realm of this world.
"Haotian, I am your senior brother, Gu Mofan!"
The young man at the head of the group had a cold and stern expression, with a golden mark on his forehead, making him look extremely extraordinary. He exuded an aura of nobility, like a true deity.
But when facing Li Hao, his expression was gentle, without the slightest bit of the majesty and arrogance of a quasi-emperor, and he looked very approachable.
“Surname Gu…” Li Hao’s heart stirred as he thought of Gu Yan and that young man from the Ancient God Clan.
“That’s right. I am an ancient god. I became a disciple of my master 60,000 years ago, and I still have an avatar left in the Primordial True Realm to cultivate and comprehend.
Gu Mofan seemed to see through Li Hao's thoughts and said, "Junior Brother Haotian, if you ever want to go to the Ancient God Clan, just mention my name or let me know, and the Ancient God Clan will definitely treat you well."
Li Hao heard that the Ancient God Clan also had a Great Emperor in charge, and there was probably more than one, after all, they were one of the top ten strongest clans in the True Realm.
"Greetings, Senior Brother," he greeted, bowing his head.
"I am your second senior brother, Di Wushe!"
Beside him, a young man with long silver-white hair spoke calmly to Li Hao.
He exuded a natural imperial aura, like an emperor standing in the void. If Gu Mofan next to him was a god, then this second senior brother, "Di Wushe," was a celestial emperor. His temperament was even more unique and striking than Gu Mofan's, giving him a feeling of looking down on all worlds and being unrestrained by time and space.
Li Hao was shocked. In the True Realm, many surnames overlap, but the surname Di is unique.
Only the imperial clans, standing at the pinnacle of all races in the True Realm, dare to use "Emperor" as their surname!
The other party is of the same clan as Di Linchen... Li Hao thought of Di Linchen; he should have arrived in the Primordial True Realm long ago, right? He wondered where he was.
Then, he thought of the Immortal Lord Quasi-Emperor Prince, Emperor Jiming, who had blocked his way, and his eyes flickered slightly.
"If you encounter members of the imperial family, just state my name. Although I am no longer the emperor's son, they should still remember my name."
Emperor Wushe said calmly.
Li Hao nodded. Although he had a conflict with Di Jiming, it did not prevent him from being friends with Di Linchen, nor did it prevent him from being fellow disciples with Di Wushe in front of him.
The family is a diverse group, so let's keep things separate.
"I am your third senior sister, Zhan Qinghuang!"
Beside him, the woman in a crimson battle dress with silver-white patterns inlaid on it smiled at Li Hao.
Her figure is graceful, like a fairy in the fire, and every frown and smile has a captivating charm.
"Just like them, if you encounter the Zhan Tian clan, just mention my name, and they will treat you well and prevent any fools from coming and causing conflict with you."
"His surname is Zhan..."
Li Hao was astonished. The Ancient God Clan, the Imperial Clan, and now the Battle Heaven Clan—all of them were among the top ten clans in the True Realm, with Great Emperors presiding over them.
To be able to take these geniuses from powerful clans under one's wing as personal disciples, one's own connections and status as a master must be incredibly high.
"Junior brother, what clan are you from? I don't seem to have heard of any clan with the surname Hao in the True Realm."
Gu Mofan asked curiously.
Li Hao now understood that his master had asked him to acknowledge them in order to avoid future conflicts arising from their hidden relationships.
Besides personal cultivation, connections are also extremely important, and Li Hao had already witnessed the power of connections.
"I have no family, I was not born into a prominent family, I only have a few close friends."
Li Hao said.
Upon hearing this, Gu Mofan and the other two narrowed their eyes slightly. No family?
Being born into a non-great clan means having neither the bloodline of a great clan nor the family's foundation. So how did you cultivate to this level and become a disciple of a master?
The three of them once again had a deeper appreciation for Li Hao's talent.
At this moment, figures also appeared in the other three vortexes nearby.
There were two men and one woman. The woman was over ninety years old, with a delicate face, wearing a snow-silver dress, and her hair was also silver-gray. Her earrings were crystal clear, and she had an extraordinary noble demeanor. Although she was a woman, there was a kind of domineering spirit between her brows, as if she wanted to make heaven and earth bow down.
Li Hao's eyes narrowed. This must be the sixth senior sister his master had mentioned, but this aura also belonged to the imperial clan.
"This is our junior brother."
When Zhan Qinghuang and the other two appeared, she smiled and spoke to them, showing no airs whatsoever.
"Junior brother?"
All three looked at Li Hao with some surprise in their eyes, but then they all smiled and nodded to him.
"Haotian greets his senior brothers and sisters."
Li Hao bowed again first.
"I am your fourth senior brother, Lei Jingfeng." The speaker was a middle-aged man with a kind face.
“I am your fifth senior brother, Long Qingge. As you can see, I am from the Ancestral Dragon Clan. Although I am not human, my master does not despise me and is willing to teach me.”
Fifth Senior Brother Long Qingge still looks like a young boy, and speaks in a somewhat childish way. His eyes are sharp yet clear and pure, like a young man who is naive to the ways of the world, but he exudes a domineering aura of dragon power.
“The Ancestral Dragon Clan…” Li Hao’s eyes flickered slightly. He knew that this was also one of the top ten powerful clans in the True Realm. They were the kings of the Eastern Region, equivalent to the Heavenly Palace of the Southern Region.
“I am your sixth senior sister, Di Ling Shu.”
Beside him, the woman in the snow-silver dress nodded slightly to Li Hao. She was extremely beautiful, with intelligent and lively eyes, yet she also possessed a noble and ethereal beauty.
Li Hao thought to himself, "As expected, it's another imperial clan. Apart from myself, all six of my master's disciples have extremely powerful backgrounds."
His feelings toward Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor were even more complicated. Although he had talent, he was currently unable to provide any assistance to his master.
And when they become disciples of their master, the powerful clans behind them will inevitably have many good relations and close ties with Daoyuan Immortal Emperor.
"Junior brother, what clan are you from?"
Lei Jingfeng asked in a gentle voice.
Third Senior Sister Zhan Qinghuang answered for Li Hao, stating that Li Hao had no family and relied entirely on himself.
Upon hearing this, Lei Jingfeng and the other two looked at Li Hao in surprise. Without the support of a family, even the greatest talent can be easily buried. After all, cultivation requires resources. Even if you have unparalleled talent, without a good environment, you will slowly lose your brilliance and become just another ordinary person.
But the fact that Li Hao was able to break through and become a disciple of his master means that he must have competed with the top geniuses of other major clans and stood out from the crowd to achieve this!
"Did any of you come empty-handed?"
At this moment, Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor spoke, casually glancing at them.
Upon hearing this, Gu Mofan and the others reacted and immediately raised their hands to take out treasures from their own domains.
"Junior brother, this is the Life-Severing Realm Core. As long as it's not a threat from a Quasi-Emperor, it can save your life and cut off the pursuit of Immortal Kings."
Gu Mofan flipped out his palm, and a jet-black, kernel-like object flew towards Li Hao, emanating a powerful and terrifying aura of his domain.
Li Hao was stunned. This... is so valuable?
"This item can ensure your safe growth to the Immortal King realm," Gu Mofan said with a smile.
"This, senior brother, this is too precious. I don't have anything to give you."
Li Hao waved his hands repeatedly.
"Take it. You're the youngest, there's no reason for me to accept your things. We'll talk about it when you've achieved some success in your cultivation."
Gu Mofan smiled.
Li Hao was about to decline when Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor said, "Take it. This is a token of our fellow disciples' goodwill. If you want to repay them, cultivate diligently and reach the Quasi-Emperor Realm as soon as possible. That way, I won't have to worry."
Upon hearing this, Li Hao understood his master's intentions. He was moved and felt a mix of emotions. He knew he had no way to repay his master and that the only way to do so was to grow up quickly and become qualified to do so.
He didn't refuse anymore, accepted the things, and held them tightly.
"This is the Imperial Might Stone of my imperial clan. Wearing it will make you unafraid of the pressure from the Emperor Realm, let alone the pressure from the Immortal King Realm. No one can intimidate your mind."
Emperor Wushe also presented a treasure, speaking calmly to Li Hao.
"Thank you, Second Senior Brother!"
Li Hao accepted it.
"This is the blood of a Heavenly Phoenix that one of my War Clan's ancestors once killed. It can refine your immortal body and elevate it to perfection. If it is already perfect, you can save it until you reach the Immortal King Realm to use it, as it can help purify your realm."
Zhan Qinghuang said, and gave Li Hao a small crimson bottle. She was radiating a precious aura, and the phoenix shadow of Nirvana surrounded the bottle, making a long chirping sound.
"Thank you, Third Senior Sister!"
Li Hao felt it was a little hot and reached out to take it.
Following that, Lei Jingfeng and his fifth senior brother Long Qingge each presented two gifts: a piece of Chaos Thunderwood, which could help him comprehend the Chaos Thunder Dao, and an Ancestral Dragon Scale, which could withstand attacks from the realm. Moreover, it only required the use of the power of control to activate, without the need for the infusion of immortal power. The dragon scale was like a shield, and if used properly, even a Celestial King would find it difficult to harm Li Hao in the slightest.
Li Hao thanked them and accepted the Chaos Thunderwood; he could use it for carving.
With his power, the ancestral dragon scales could indeed be of great value.
"I was originally going to give you the Emperor's Might Stone too..."
Di Lingshu said to Li Hao, "Since Second Senior Brother has given it to me, and I came in a hurry without any preparation, and you are also at the Immortal Lord Realm, and you are about to go and comprehend the Chaos Dao, then I will give you a copy of my comprehension of the Chaos Dao cultivation method..."
As she spoke, she then felt that her master could also bestow this upon Li Hao, so she added, "You are permitted to pass it on to others."
If it were only given to Li Hao himself, it wouldn't be of much value, but if it could be passed on to others, it would be a treasure that could be used to establish a sect.
Li Hao thanked him and accepted the gift.
In the blink of an eye, he received six rare treasures. Among them, the most useful to him was the Life-Severing Core given to him by his senior brother, which was equivalent to a second life for a Celestial Lord.
"Ling Shu, how is your comprehension of the Chaos Dao? Have you made any progress?"
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor asked the question.
Di Ling Shu looked at her master, and instantly transformed from a woman exuding noble majesty into someone more lively and obedient, saying, "Reporting to Master, I am currently refining the third Chaos Dao!"
"Junior Sister... oh no, Sixth Junior Sister, you're making such a quick progress?"
Beside him, Lei Jingfeng exclaimed in surprise.
Long Qingge quickly lowered his head and counted on his fingers, saying, "Sixth Junior Sister, you've only been in the Primordial True Realm for three hundred years, right? That's a hundred years faster than I was back then!"
"It's also a hundred years faster than me," Lei Jingfeng said with a wry smile.
"It's alright, they're a hundred years behind me."
Second Senior Brother Di Wushe said calmly, but there was a hint of smugness between his brows.
After all, this is in front of our master.
By this calculation, the gap between him and the fourth and fifth sons is a full two hundred years.
"You're sixty years behind me, but that's still pretty good," Gu Mofan said with a smile, trying to comfort him.
"About me."
Zhan Qinghuang clicked her tongue and looked at the sixth junior sister of the imperial clan. The disciples recruited by their master were indeed top-notch. Apart from Di Wushe, the difference between the others was not significant.
Upon hearing Di Wushe's words, the little bit of pride in Di Lingshu's eyes vanished instantly, replaced by a sense of astonishment. After her senior brother finished speaking to her third senior sister, the glimmer of pride that had just risen in her heart completely crumbled, leaving her with a feeling of frustration.
"Senior Brother, you're faster than me too?"
Gu Mofan was speechless upon hearing this, and said, "Do you think Senior Brother is a dull person?"
Beside them, Lei Jingfeng and Long Qingge were speechless.
So they were actually at the bottom?
They exchanged a glance, and suddenly a sense of mutual appreciation appeared in their eyes.
"Giggle..."
Zhan Qinghuang immediately covered her mouth and laughed, saying, "Senior Brother, Sixth Junior Sister must think that since you joined the sect 60,000 years ago and still haven't forged your own path to becoming an emperor, she probably thought that Master didn't choose the right disciple when he first accepted you!"
She voiced Di Lingshu's subconscious thought, and Di Lingshu's cheeks immediately flushed red with embarrassment. She said, "Third Senior Sister, I didn't... Eldest Senior Brother, I didn't..."
"It is indeed my fault. I have been unable to open up the Emperor's Path for so long. I am indeed useless. Otherwise, I could have truly helped Master share some of the burden."
Gu Mofan naturally wouldn't be angry with her, he just smiled wryly.
Share the burden? Li Hao's heart stirred, and he looked at his master.
The opponent sat calmly in front of the chessboard, seemingly unmoved by anything in the world.
However, even Immortal Emperors can perish in the ancient demon war. In their own eyes, Immortal Emperors are supreme and feel that nothing can stop them; they are invincible in the world.
But they must also have their own pressures and difficulties.
He pursed his lips slightly, suddenly wanting to improve as soon as possible so that he could take on some responsibilities like his senior brother.
"Senior Brother, you've gone too far. If you're a piece of trash, then we are too."
Di Wushe shook his head slightly. As the second disciple, only he knew how monstrous and powerful Gu Mofan was.
He said calmly to Di Ling Shu, "The path to becoming an emperor isn't so easy to forge. I joined a sect 30,000 years ago, and in just 6,000 years, I cultivated from the first level of the Immortal Lord Realm to the peak of the Immortal King Realm! Then, in another 4,000 years, I stepped into the Quasi-Emperor Realm, able to comprehend the Emperor's Will, and forge my own path to becoming an emperor... But in the 20,000 years since then..."
He said calmly, "I have absolutely no clue, no idea what to do!"
"That gate is like a blocked door. Countless geniuses in the world have fallen before that supreme gate. It's not as simple as you imagine."
"Yes."
Zhan Qinghuang, who was standing beside her, was also a quasi-Emperor. She deeply sympathized with the difficulty of opening the Emperor's Path and sighed, "..."
"Such extraordinary talent is rare, a once-in-a-millennium occurrence. Even such a prodigy is only qualified to glimpse the threshold. Whether he can enter depends on other opportunities. Below the Emperor Realm, all are ants!"
Di Lingshu clicked her tongue slightly. She greatly admired her clansman Di Wushe and knew of his glorious achievements in the family. She thought he was about to step into the Emperor Realm after 30,000 years, but she didn't expect that there was nothing she could do.
The atmosphere inside the hall became heavy and oppressive as a result.
Long Qingge suddenly turned to look at Li Hao and said, "Junior Brother, whether we can come in last depends on your performance."
"Uh."
Li Hao was taken aback, then thought of the training time they had just planned, and scratched his head, saying, "I'll give it a try first."
“Junior Brother has only a hundred years of lifespan, yet he is already at the Immortal Lord realm. His comprehension must be extraordinary. You two are definitely at the bottom.”
Zhan Qinghuang covered her mouth and laughed.
Upon hearing this, Di Lingshu and the other two looked at Li Hao in astonishment. They were not at the Quasi-Emperor level and could not see through Li Hao's soul lifespan at a glance unless they used some kind of power, but that would be somewhat offensive.
"Only a hundred years of lifespan?"
Lei Jingfeng and Long Qingge exchanged a glance, both of them seeing the astonishment in each other's eyes. Did that mean that their fate was sealed?
Di Ling Shu was also shocked: a hundred years of lifespan, and the third level of the Immortal Lord realm?
This cultivation speed was unheard of; even the most monstrous geniuses who had ever emerged from the imperial clans seemed to have only just reached this level.
However, because he was too extraordinary, he was targeted by the Ancient Demon Emperor and was assassinated before he could grow up.
Although the imperial family protected him very well, who could keep up with an ancient demon emperor as an assassin indefinitely?
However, after that, the imperial family became even more meticulous in protecting the top talents in the family, and such incidents never happened again.
Of course, it is also possible that the three emperors of the imperial clan were enraged by this, and appeared in the world one after another, turning the territory where the ancient demon emperor was located into a forbidden area, and the terrifying deterrent they left behind had an effect.
"Comprehending the Dao of Chaos is somewhat different from single cultivation."
Di Wushe remained calm and said, "Some geniuses from the True Realm come here but seem to suffer from acclimatization issues, making slow progress in their cultivation. On the other hand, some learned and knowledgeable individuals who previously performed unremarkable have risen rapidly here. The Chaos Dao tests not only talent but also requires extensive accumulation!"
"Before coming here, you don't need to learn a wide variety of things. Just specialize in one thing and practice it to the extreme, and you can become a top genius."
"But what's needed in the face of the Chaos Dao is a diverse, comprehensive improvement!"
Hearing his words, Lei Jingfeng and Long Qingge regained some confidence and nodded in agreement.
"Yes."
Zhan Qinghuang didn't deny it, but glanced at Di Wushe and said, "Are you just trying to say that you were not only exceptionally talented, but also knowledgeable and well-versed in the arts?"
Di Wushe coughed lightly and said calmly, "Junior sister, you're overthinking it."
"Wu She's talent is indeed the highest among us. Let's see if our junior brother can surpass him now."
Gu Mofan spoke, looking at Li Hao with encouragement and expectation in his eyes.
Li Hao felt a warmth in his heart as he sensed the other person's kindness, and nodded vigorously with a smile: "I will try my best!"
Seeing this, Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor glanced at Di Ling Shu and said, "Ling Shu, did you hear that? You also need to speed up, otherwise in less than a thousand years, Hao Tian will definitely catch up with you and surpass you, and then it will be a bit embarrassing."
Di Lingshu was stunned, and immediately shook her head repeatedly, "Impossible, absolutely impossible."
She seemed to think that saying this might be a blow to Li Hao, but that's just her nature; she had no ill intentions and wasn't afraid of being misunderstood.
"Even if my junior brother is exceptionally talented, and even surpasses me in comprehending the Chaos Dao, I am already forging the third Chaos Law. Let alone a thousand years, even three thousand years wouldn't be enough for him to catch up with me, unless it's ten thousand years later..."
She said earnestly, after all, she wouldn't stand still, and her progress was also incredibly rapid.
If she hadn't thought that Li Hao had reached such a level after only a hundred years of lifespan, she wouldn't have added the phrase "ten thousand years later." In her view, with her in the lead, no one could possibly surpass her.
From childhood to adulthood, she has always been quick to catch up with and surpass those who have started ahead of her.
And now that I've set off three hundred years ahead of schedule, how could I possibly be overtaken? Impossible!
Three hundred years is a fleeting moment for ordinary immortals and gods, but for top geniuses, it is enough to create a huge gap.
Gu Mofan and Di Wushe didn't speak, but exchanged a glance. They knew that their master wouldn't make judgments lightly. Although he spoke casually, the fact that he could say such a thing was enough to show that this junior brother's talent was even more terrifying than they had seen, and that he might have extremely strong potential.
"Then we'll see."
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor smiled without saying a word.
Seeing her master's expression, which seemed so confident, Di Lingshu felt a sense of grievance and annoyance, like a kitten whose tail had been stepped on.
My master knows my talent, so why does he look down on me like this?
Or perhaps we're overestimating this junior brother?
"How about this, I'll make a bet with my junior brother?"
Di Lingshu's eyes shifted, landing on Li Hao beside her. A smile played on her lips, her expression stubborn, proud, and frank as she said:
"Junior brother, I just arrived in the Primordial True Realm and it took me three years to comprehend my first chaotic star. How long will it take you?"
She used extremely euphemistic language, using words like "expenditure" and "talent," but only those in the Primordial True Realm would know how terrifying a talent it is to be able to comprehend a chaotic star in just three years!
Although Di Ling Shu is inferior to Di Wu She, how many Di Wu Shes are there in the world?
Among the imperial clans, the opponents are all top-tier prodigies. Apart from the imperial clan geniuses who perished prematurely, there is probably only one person in the past 100,000 years who can surpass Di Wushe.
"Senior sister's talent is unparalleled; I am naturally inferior to her."
Li Hao waved his hand and said that he had no intention of competing. He could also see that this senior sister did not really want to compete with him. She just lost face in front of the master and wanted to prove herself to the master.
"Are you afraid or disdainful?"
When Di Lingshu saw Li Hao waving his hand, she became somewhat annoyed.
Li Hao was speechless, unsure of what to say for a moment.
"Junior brother, why don't you accept the bet? How about we wager a single immortal stone?"
Gu Mofan chuckled.
Di Ling Shu's expression remained unchanged as she stared intently at Li Hao.
Seeing this, Li Hao understood his senior brother's intention and could only nod, "Okay."
To them, a magic stone was nothing more than a roadside weed, something easily obtained.
He had already earned over a million immortal stones on the Heavenly Bridge; one stone was nothing to him, he could afford to lose it.
Seeing that Li Hao agreed, Di Ling Shu nodded, then looked at Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor: "Master, I have already made an agreement with Junior Brother, so it doesn't count as bullying him."
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor smiled and said, "Now that you've met everyone, aren't you busy? You should go back to where you are."
Gu Mofan and Di Wushe glanced at their master and immediately felt that his smile was like that of an old fox. They were quite familiar with their master and the others. Those few words he said earlier were probably just to provoke their sixth junior sister and, incidentally, to spur on their junior brother.
They didn't have any particular thoughts on this. Back then, the two of them had competed with each other for quite a while under the "instigation" of their master.
After a fight, they both came to respect each other, which deepened their bond as fellow disciples.
"I have other matters to attend to, so I will take my leave now."
Di Wushe bowed to his master, then glanced at Li Hao before leaving and said, "Junior brother, good luck. I bet on you to win."
Li Hao was somewhat flattered and quickly said, "Thank you, Second Senior Brother."
"Junior Brother Haotian, I'm also betting on you to win."
Gu Mofan bid farewell to his master and also spoke to Li Hao.
"Me too."
Zhan Qinghuang also seemed to enjoy watching the drama unfold.
After the three finished speaking, they smiled lightly at Di Ling Shu, who was already furious, and then disappeared from the hall.
"Junior sister, don't be angry. Qingge and I both think you won't be surpassed!"
Lei Jingfeng and Long Qingge exchanged a glance, then Lei Jingfeng spoke to Di Lingshu.
Di Ling Shu's expression did not soften. Her senior brother and the others did not have high hopes for her, and even her own clansman, Di Wu She, did not have high hopes for her. She had not taken the bet too seriously before, but now she was really taking it seriously.
"Junior brother, we didn't mean anything by it, let's go."
After Lei Jingfeng finished speaking, he smiled at Li Hao and waved goodbye.
Li Hao knew they didn't mean to look down on him, so he waved goodbye to them.
Di Lingshu glanced at Li Hao and said, "Then come and chase after him!"
After saying that, his figure flickered, he bid farewell to Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Inside the main hall, in an instant, only Li Hao, Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor, and Xuan Gui Emperor Soul remained.
"Pack your things and get ready to leave. Give your senior sister some pressure; the competition and striving between you will help you grow faster."
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor said with a smile.
Li Hao thought of Shi Miao, but hesitated and asked, "Master, may I stay here a little longer?"
"Ok?"
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor looked at him, puzzled.
But soon, as if realizing something, he asked, "You're waiting for her?"
Li Hao nodded.
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor's eyes flickered slightly. Thinking of that girl traversing the endless river of time, desperately gambling with this lifetime, he sighed inwardly and said:
"As you wish."
Li Hao quickly thanked him.
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor said to Xuan Gui Emperor Soul, "You should continue to follow him until he breaks through to the next realm and becomes a king. Also, please help him settle down in the mountains during this time."
Xuan Turtle Emperor Soul agreed and then left with Li Hao.
"First, I'll take you to build your residence. You can build whatever kind of palace you like. These are all the palaces of your senior brother and the others. If you want to find them, you can go inside and activate their avatars."
Xuan Gui Di Po pointed to the magnificent palace next to the main hall and said.
Li Hao nodded and came to the side of the palace. His thoughts flashed, and with a wave of his hand, he released the essence of the Earth and Wood Dao.
The ground trembled slightly, and soon, a simple fenced courtyard appeared.
Xuan Turtle Emperor Soul asked in surprise: "That's it?"
That's enough.
Looking at the small courtyard, Li Hao felt as if he had returned to a familiar place. He pushed open the courtyard gate and said, "Although the world is vast, a space of only three feet is enough."
Seeing this, the Xuan Turtle Emperor Soul had no objection. Some people like grandeur and luxury, while others prefer simplicity and solemnity. It's not surprising that someone like Li Hao prefers simplicity.
Once the accommodations were built, the Xuan Turtle Emperor Soul showed Li Hao around the cultivation area on the mountaintop and explained some of the rules of the Extreme Dao Mountain to him.
The rules are simple, without too many restrictions. After all, Li Hao is a direct disciple, and the rules he needs to follow are simply to respect his teacher and not to harm his fellow disciples.
The higher you go, the fewer rules there are to constrain you.
Once he was familiar with the mountaintop, Li Hao stood at the edge and looked out. He saw that in the training ground closest to the mountaintop, although there were only a few people, there were still several hundred figures. Their auras were all at the Immortal King level, with only a very few at the Immortal Lord level!
"Are these also outer disciples?"
Li Hao was taken aback.
Xuan Gui Di Po said, "Apart from your personal disciples, they are all outer disciples, just with different lengths of time since they became disciples. They all have to call you senior brother."
Li Hao was speechless. At this moment, he could suddenly understand the feelings of Jianxin and Mingyue during the Southern Region Battle.
As the direct disciple of the Supreme Being, even Immortal Kings are accustomed to such things.
At this moment, as they were talking, a sudden imperial might emanated from the main hall, enveloping the entire Extreme Dao Mountain.
The illusory image of Master Daoyuan Immortal Emperor appeared, like a celestial manifestation of heaven and earth, embracing the Extreme Dao Mountain, as if his hands could embrace the entire Extreme Dao Mountain.
"Today, my Jidao Mountain has received its seventh direct disciple, a cause for celebration throughout heaven and earth!"
As he spoke, the Dharma Image raised its hand, and a cloud of mist gathered, condensing in the void to form the likeness of Li Hao. The aura and spirit were exactly the same, as if it were a painting made of clouds!
Seeing this scene, Li Hao was shocked. His master's painting skills must be extraordinary!
This sudden announcement startled countless disciples cultivating on Jidao Mountain. Upon seeing the phantom of Daoyuan Immortal Emperor, they all hurriedly knelt down to pay homage.
"The seventh disciple?"
"Only a few hundred years have passed, and he has already taken on another personal disciple?!"
"It's him! It's the man who just came up the mountain!"
"He is indeed of great status, with an imperial weapon leading the way. He is actually a direct disciple!" Many disciples looked up at the illusory figure of Li Hao formed by the clouds and mist, all of them were shocked, and they all remembered that in the future, when they saw this young man, they had to bow their heads and call him senior brother, and they could not be negligent!
On Mount Jidao, there are few opportunities to see the Dao Source Immortal Emperor. His personal disciples are practically the heavens here!
The many immortal kings in the dojo closest to the mountaintop were also stunned at this moment, and silently memorized Li Hao's appearance.
Suddenly, many strange phenomena of the origin of the Great Dao on Mount Jidao began to appear, and chaotic energy spread. Thunder rumbled and shook the heavens and earth, as if the heavens and earth were in resonance!
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor's words, "Heaven and earth rejoice together," seemed to truly make heaven and earth cheer and congratulate Li Hao!
Many disciples looked on with envy at the sight.
Seeing such a grand display, Li Hao was also shocked, realizing for the first time the extraordinary status of becoming a disciple of an Immortal Emperor.
"I have sent your appearance and aura to Chaos and Primordial Realm, so that they can pass them on to their own disciples to avoid a life-or-death battle. Sparring is fine, but there is no need for mutual slaughter. If there is an irreconcilable grudge, we can settle it by challenging each other to the Imperial Arena."
The voice of Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor entered Li Hao's mind.
"Thank you, Master."
Li Hao responded gratefully.
A moment later, the phantom of Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor dissipated on Jidao Mountain, but Li Hao's phantom remained high in the sky outside the mountain, visible to countless disciples who looked up.
There was much discussion in all the temples, large and small, on the mountain.
Li Hao withdrew his gaze and calmed his emotions. He didn't care about becoming famous, but was moved by his master's intentions.
He stopped wandering around and returned to the courtyard, where he began his carving practice.
"What are you doing?"
Xuan Turtle Emperor Soul was somewhat puzzled by Li Hao's actions.
"engraving."
"I know, I mean, why do you sculpt instead of cultivating?"
Xuan Turtle Emperor Soul asked in confusion.
Li Hao said, "Everything can be cultivated, as long as you have the will."
Xuan Turtle Emperor Soul thought about it and realized that what he said was true, but everything has its pros and cons. Cultivating by carving is undoubtedly extremely slow.
However, this is the Extreme Dao Mountain, and since the master hasn't said anything, there's even less need for me to ramble on. Besides, if a prodigy like Li Hao really needs guidance, it should be the master himself who does it.
It immediately retreated back into its original shell and comfortably took a nap.
The courtyard became quiet.
Aside from carving, Li Hao, as always, would take out the corpse of an ancient demon to cook.
The corpse of an ancient demon is not as valuable as the blood essence of an ancient demon, but the blood essence of an ancient demon is rare. Being able to cook with the corpse of an ancient demon to enhance one's primordial spirit is already incredibly fast.
"Sculpture, cooking, chess, painting..."
These four skills are now all at the twelfth level.
If I reach the thirteenth level, I can break through to the next level and become a king!
However, the experience bar alone is already quite long. But now that Li Hao is by Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor's side, he has a reference point for carving.
The Xuan Turtle Emperor Soul alone allowed Li Hao to accumulate a lot of experience in painting and carving.
The giant black tortoise beneath the immortal mountain, a quasi-emperor realm being, also provides a wealth of experience.
Li Hao felt that if he had time, he could talk to his master and ask him to be his material for carving and painting. After repeating this a few times, he would probably fill up his experience bar very quickly!
At that time, all you need to do is sense your state of mind. And this sense of mind is something that can be grasped at any time when inspiration strikes. If there is no inspiration, you may not be able to comprehend it even after a thousand years of hard work.
Regardless, let's max out our experience first.
Immediately, Li Hao began to use carving and painting techniques, using the Xuan Turtle Emperor's Soul to create a painting, and then found the giant black turtle.
Time flies, and several months have passed.
Li Hao finished drawing and sculpting the black giant tortoise, accumulating enough experience that he no longer had much to draw repeatedly.
After months of carving and painting, Li Hao also learned that this black giant tortoise was known as the Ancestor Yuanming.
“Master Yuanming, I’m going back to the mountain tomorrow. I’ll send you more good food then.”
Li Hao said to the black giant tortoise.
In front of him was a group of carved figures of 'Master Yuanming', as well as portraits.
"Are you leaving so soon?"
The old ancestor Yuanming transmitted his voice, which was deep and resonant, giving off a kind of honest and simple feeling.
After spending several months together, it went from barely managing to get by at first to being captivated by the delicious food Li Hao gave it. Now, it felt a little reluctant to see the young man leave.
"I'm right on your back. I'll come to see you anytime. You can also tell me what you want to eat anytime."
Li Hao got up, dusted himself off, and grinned.
The Ancestor Yuanming thought so too, and then didn't try to stop him anymore. However, he carefully treasured and put away the carvings and paintings that Li Hao had left behind.
After so many years of cultivation, this is the first time someone has painted a picture of it. It feels a little strange.
It wasn't that Ancestor Yuanming hadn't encountered people who could paint. There were many geniuses who came to the Primordial True Realm, and there were always some special cases like Li Hao. It's just that when those people saw Ancestor Yuanming's imposing and enormous body, none of them dared to offend him.
……
Time passed, day after day.
Almost a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Inside the main hall atop the mountain, Li Hao played chess with his master, Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor.
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor's chess skills were extremely high. Li Hao found that even though he was a 12th-dan chess master, he was far inferior to him. In no time, he would be defeated and lose a large part of his territory, and then his vital points would be sealed off by a few moves.
The key is that after losing so many games, he still hasn't figured out how he lost.
In painting and chess, Li Hao felt that his master was above him.
The Immortal Emperor is the ultimate being in the True Realm. He has an immortal lifespan, and his divine sense is far superior to that of the Immortal King. While an Immortal King can think of a hundred thoughts in the blink of an eye, an Immortal Emperor can think of ten thousand or even a hundred thousand. His thoughts are more agile and faster, and he can learn anything in an instant.
"Lost again."
When Li Hao saw where his master's finger was about to land, his eye twitched. He had secretly prayed that it wouldn't land there, but he had been so naive!
Even he himself could see that this step was fatal, so how could his master not see it, unless he deliberately spared him?
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor smiled and casually picked up the tea beside him. This tea was brewed by Li Hao. Li Hao had planted two tea trees in his small courtyard, cultivated with the essence of the Wood Dao and irrigated with immortal power. Although it could not be considered a peerless tea variety, it was still sweet, fragrant, and had an endless aftertaste under his tea-making skills.
"It's been almost a year, are you still planning to keep waiting?"
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor casually asked with a smile.
Li Hao picked up the pieces somewhat dejectedly, put them back in their respective chess boxes, and said without thinking:
"Wait, she'll definitely come."
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor nodded slightly, not believing that the girl would break her promise. After all, they had already traversed 100,000 years, let alone such a short distance.
“But if you stay here for a year and then try to comprehend the Chaos Stars, I’m afraid you’ll lose to your senior sister Ling Shu.”
Li Hao didn't even look up, slowly picking up the pieces, and said, "Losing is losing. We're from the same sect anyway, why bother arguing about who's better?"
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor was slightly taken aback, then smiled. Although his encouragement had failed, he was even more gratified that Dao Yuan had said those words.
"Your tea-making skills are quite good, but the tea variety is a bit lacking. I'll send you two Ancient Demon Tea seeds later, which should be of great benefit to you."
After tasting the tea, Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor smiled and said something that had a rather profound meaning.
Li Hao was slightly taken aback, and immediately realized that his master had noticed something. He asked curiously, "Ancient Demon Tea?"
"They are two excellent divine tea plants that I planted in the chest cavity of the Immortal King and the Ancient Demon. They absorbed the essence and soul of the Ancient Demon, so the divine tea was contaminated, but it should have a different flavor."
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor said.
Li Hao was speechless. Using the corpses of immortal kings and ancient demons as soil to grow tea trees?
This method is rather cruel; if the ancient demon race knew about it, they would probably be collectively enraged.
However, if they knew they were using them as food, they would probably be furious.
Another month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Li Hao's experience bars for both painting and carving have accumulated to nearly half.
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor readily agreed to Li Hao's request, and like Su Jiuzhe, quietly became Li Hao's source material, which enabled Li Hao's experience in painting and carving to improve by leaps and bounds.
When Li Hao returned to the main hall with pastries and tea, he had barely put them down when Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor said:
"It seems the person you're waiting for has arrived."
Li Hao was taken aback.
Then, a familiar and profound aura appeared outside the palace.
It was a fleeting moment!
Li Hao immediately realized what was happening, and with excitement in his heart, he rushed out of the main hall and saw Shi Miao descending through the air.
Shi Miao was also filled with excitement when she saw Li Hao. Although they had only been separated for a year, it felt like a thousand years. She rushed into Li Hao's arms and said:
"Sorry for the long wait."
"It's alright, it's only been a year."
Li Hao said.
Shi Miao wanted to say something more, but suddenly remembered something, quickly straightened her clothes, and then bowed to Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor in the hall:
"Junior Shi Miao greets Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor, and thanks the Immortal Emperor for saving my life!"
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor sat in front of the chessboard, his elbows casually resting on his knees, and said, "I will take you, my beloved, as my personal disciple. You don't mind, do you?"
Shi Miao was taken aback, then blushed and said, "As long as he is willing, this junior has no other ideas."
"You little girl, how many talented men did your master find for you to continue your bloodline, but you refused them all. So that's what you were thinking back then."
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor shook his head slightly, as if recalling the past, and found it somewhat amusing.
Upon hearing this, Shi Miao's eyes couldn't help but show a hint of sadness, as she thought of her fallen master:
"He had long foreseen the great calamity that would ravage the world, but he never expected to perish himself, nor did he anticipate that the Heavenly Emperor would be such a despicable person..."
When she spoke of the Southern Region Supreme, a hint of hatred flashed in her eyes.
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor gazed silently into the void and said, "How do you know he couldn't have foreseen his own demise? Perhaps it was simply his own choice. Without his sacrifice, the Southern Region wouldn't be what it is today. That Heavenly Emperor... is indeed disappointing."
He shook his head slightly at this point.
Shi Miao was stunned. Had her master foreseen her demise?
She suddenly fell silent. Yes, perhaps her master already knew, but he deliberately defied the great calamity.
"Now that you've come to the Primordial True Realm, don't waste your time. Go on your way."
Dao Yuan Immortal Emperor waved his hand and said.
Upon hearing this, Shi Miao immediately bowed deeply with a solemn expression before leading Li Hao out of the main hall.
"Let's go to the Chaos Stars. Which one do you want to go to? Have you decided?"
Shi Miao asked.
Li Hao knew that each of the sixty-nine chaotic stars was different, and most people would seek out the chaotic star that best suited their highest level of cultivation to comprehend, as this would lead to faster progress.
“Wherever you go, I’ll go,” Li Hao said.
Shi Miao couldn't help but smile and said, "I'm here to accompany you. Of course, wherever you go, I'll go. Oh well, we'll comprehend them all sooner or later anyway, so it doesn't matter which one we go to first."
As she spoke, she raised her hand and made a gesture, and a spacetime magic circle appeared before her eyes:
"Those who seek enlightenment on chaotic stars are all guarded by celestial kings to resist the chaotic realms above. Let me protect you."
Li Hao looked at her in surprise, only then realizing that her aura had changed; she was no longer at the Immortal Lord realm, but at the Immortal King realm!
"Your cultivation level has improved?"
"Ah."
Li Hao didn't ask any more questions. Shi Miao's improvement in cultivation level was beyond what ordinary people could achieve.
The two walked together into the spacetime magic array.
The surrounding spacetime alternated, and before long, when the magic array in front of us opened again, a steep sword peak appeared before us.
This is the real Sword Peak. Its appearance and shape are exactly like a sword. It is extremely sharp on both sides, and the mountain edge is so thin that it is almost like a blade.
Despite the thinness of the sand and gravel, they did not scatter but were instead condensed by a fundamental law of nature.
Li Hao stared in astonishment at this scene. Turning his head, he discovered that the flowers and plants at the foot of the mountain were actually sharp swords, rising from the ground, all incredibly sharp.
Some flowers and plants, besides resembling swords in appearance, also resemble spears, and some are slightly curved and twisted, like a scene refracted underwater.
"This……"
Li Hao stared in astonishment at the scene, which was even more exaggerated than the Sword Tomb, with every object bearing the shadow of a sword.
Besides the sword, Li Hao also sensed the aura of other Great Dao origins.
"This is the Chaos Sword Star!"
Shi Miao said to Li Hao, "Focus on the sword path, and integrate other great paths into the sword path to form the Chaos Sword Path!"
"The Sword Dao of Chaos..."
Li Hao sensed the origin of the Great Dao around him, and many of them were extremely familiar to him. He had mastered the origin of the Nine Orders Great Dao and evolved all things. He could comprehend all the Great Daos here.
"If you comprehend and integrate all these great principles, you can comprehend the Chaos Sword Dao?"
Li Hao couldn't help but ask curiously.
This seems to be something anyone can do; it's not difficult for anyone who has mastered the Nine Orders Immortal Seal, let alone the Dao Source Immortal Seal.
“It’s not that simple.”
Shi Miao said, "What you're talking about is pure superposition, while the Chaos Sword Dao perfectly integrates other Great Dao origins into the sword Dao. Fusion and superposition are two different kinds of power."
Li Hao recalled how he had been able to integrate all the sword techniques he had mastered into his unique sword style during his previous battles.
But hearing Shi Miao say this now, he seemed to understand something.
He had indeed been merely adding together the sword intents of various sword paths, which ultimately converged into the power of his own sword path.
"Integration is about taking the characteristics and combining them to create the most perfect shape."
Shi Miao raised her hand, and the origins of water and fire appeared before her eyes, condensing into ice and flames, gathering together, and still emitting boiling steam even under the isolation of her immortal power.
"This is the mutual loss, even if you isolate other great paths in the middle, such as the Earth Path or the Metal Path..."
As she spoke, rocks and metal condensed in the void, sandwiched between ice and blazing sun, and the boiling steam disappeared.
“But the losses still exist, only they have decreased, while the integration will not.”
With a flick of her finger, the rock merged with the metal, transforming into something resembling a diamond.
The ice and the flames merged, turning into boiling, red magma!
Li Hao was stunned when he saw her perform the move so casually, and then he suddenly understood.
"These are extreme examples, but they are also easy to integrate, such as the integration of the metal path with the water path, and the integration of the rock path with time..."
Shi Miao said, "These are even more difficult. Besides these, there is also the power of chaos. If you comprehend the characteristics of the origin of the Great Dao and can integrate them, then the power of chaos is the adhesive liquid for the integration of the Great Dao. It can stabilize them and become the Chaos Dao!"
"That sounds a bit difficult."
Li Hao said, feeling a bit complicated; the laws of chaos were indeed not so easy to grasp.
Shi Miao immediately took Li Hao's hand and flew away, saying, "I will take you to the core of the Chaos Sword Star, where you can comprehend the Chaos Dao up close."
As they spoke, the two flew through the void. Along the way, Li Hao discovered that the rivers on this star were also shaped like sharp swords, like flowing icicles.
Soon, they crossed the Sword Qi Forest and came to a vast plain. In the center of the plain was a huge, sunken pit.
Shi Miao moved with incredible speed, using the power of her domain to shield herself from the chaotic forces outside, and then landed in the deep pit with Li Hao.
As they descended deeper into the pit, they soon arrived at the heart of this chaotic star, a place that turned out to be a basin.
After passing through the dark, deep pit, the bottom was bright, with a tiny, blazing sun suspended in the dome, radiating a bright light.
Li Hao could tell that it was not the real Divine Sun, but a law-based object created by someone using the origin of the Light Dao.
To Li Hao's surprise, there were quite a few figures in the deep pit; a rough scan revealed at least two or three hundred people!
When Li Hao arrived, he learned that although this Chaotic Star could be used to comprehend the laws of chaos, it required a Celestial King to guard it and resist the chaotic domains on the Chaotic Star in order for people to feel at ease in comprehending the laws of chaos on it.
Once a Celestial King's realm is formed, there is no point in further comprehending the laws of chaos, as the realm cannot be rebuilt.
Therefore, the Immortal King realm is essentially there to accompany the Crown Prince in his studies, only responsible for accompanying and protecting him, without gaining anything for themselves.
Each prodigy who comes to comprehend this mystery is protected by a Celestial King. The chaotic power of this star is extremely strong; apart from high-ranking Celestial Kings, ordinary Celestial Kings can only protect one or two people.
This is also why there are not many people on the Chaos Star. Those who can come here to comprehend the Dao are all top geniuses, and they also need to be accompanied and guarded by a Celestial King. Ordinary geniuses, not to mention whether they can comprehend the Dao, just having a Celestial King accompany them here would cost them a lot of money.
"Walk."
Shi Miao, carrying Li Hao, landed directly in front of the group of figures.
Ahead, there were only a dozen or so figures sitting cross-legged, while everyone else kept their distance from them.
A massive ancient wall stood before him, covered with cracks of law, crisscrossing and interwoven. Li Hao scanned it and found a total of 138 cracks!
Each crack in the law is a condensation of the origin of the Great Dao, meaning that it contains 138 secret patterns of the origin of the Great Dao.
Among them, Li Hao immediately noticed that the sword dao law secret pattern stood in the very center and was the thickest.
Fortunately, he was at the twelfth level of swordsmanship and his swordsmanship origin had reached the sixth level of the extreme peak, which is why he noticed the secret runes of the swordsmanship law at a glance.
"By comprehending all these laws and runes that blend the power of chaos, one can comprehend the laws of the Chaos Sword Star."
Shi Miao said to Li Hao.
Li Hao was astonished. So many? He'd comprehended them all?
"If I comprehend all of them, I can master the laws of chaos?" Li Hao couldn't help but ask.
"It's not that simple. You need to study three chaotic stars and fuse them together to comprehend the laws of chaos!"
Shi Miao said, "Comprehending a chaotic star can only give you a superficial understanding of the Dao of Chaos. For example, if you comprehend the entirety of this chaotic sword star, you can only improve your swordsmanship and transform it into the Chaotic Swordsmanship, but it will still be far from the laws of chaos."
Li Hao was speechless for a moment, suddenly realizing that the laws of chaos were not as simple as he had thought.
My sixth senior sister, Di Ling Shu, comprehended a chaotic star in just three short years?
At this moment, Li Hao couldn't help but give the other party a thumbs up in his heart.
As he sighed, a slightly surprised voice suddenly rang out:
"You guys actually came too?"
Upon hearing the voice, Li Hao immediately recognized it. Turning his head, he saw two figures standing up. One of them had a slightly serious look in his eyes, while the other had a surprised expression but a calm gaze, as serene as a vast ocean or lake.
Li Hao never expected the world to be so small. He had just arrived here when he encountered Jianxin and Mingyue, who had clashed during the Southern Region Battle.
Behind the two men stood a thin old man wearing a straw hat and carrying a wood-chopping knife; he looked like an old man from the mountains.
But Li Hao sensed an extremely dangerous aura emanating from the other party.
"You're still alive..."
Jianxin and Mingyue quickly noticed Shi Miao, their expressions changing slightly. This girl had been completely shattered under their master's hands.
With the Supreme Being making a move, how could there possibly be any chance of survival?
But now, the other party is standing right in front of me, perfectly fine, and in just over twenty years, he has already reached the Immortal King realm!
Shi Miao glanced at the two of them, then her gaze fell on the old man holding the wood-chopping knife, and a look of seriousness appeared on her face.
"I thought you were too arrogant to come to the Primordial True Realm, but I didn't expect you to come after all. It's just a pity that you're too late."
Jian Xin's gaze fell on Li Hao, his eyes regaining their calm as he said, "In over twenty years, you've only advanced three realms outside. The once-renowned genius with a hundred-year lifespan should be at least at the fifth level of the Immortal Lord realm by now, given your cultivation speed..."
As he spoke, Li Hao noticed that Jian Xin and Ming Yue had both broken through to the Immortal Lord Realm, and were at the fifth level of the Immortal Lord Realm!
"Whether it's triple or five-fold, it makes no difference whether I defeat you or not."
Li Hao said calmly.
Upon hearing Li Hao's words, Mingyue, who was half a body length behind Jianxin, immediately changed her expression and sneered:
"What utter nonsense! Do you really think things are the same as they were twenty years ago? This is the first chaotic star you've ever been to. You don't have a trace of chaotic aura on you. You have no idea of the difference between the Primordial True Realm and the True Realm. Twenty years of cultivation here is better than two hundred or even two thousand years in the True Realm!"
Li Hao raised an eyebrow, but before he could respond, Shi Miao spoke up for him, her face cold:
"You only have a superficial understanding of the Dao of Chaos, yet you dare to be so arrogant?"
Mingyue's face immediately turned ashen, but she really had no temper when facing Shi Miao.
After that battle, they learned about Shi Miao's identity from their master and other elders of the Heavenly Palace.
This monstrous genius of the Immortal Lord realm, who appeared only briefly but easily suppressed the quasi-emperor's son of the imperial clan, was a legend of the True Realm 100,000 years ago. He was already famous in the True Realm 100,000 years ago and was a top genius.
Knowing about Shi Miao's various achievements, they all understood that in the era 100,000 years ago, when geniuses were as numerous as hairs on a cow, he was already an existence that many great clans looked up to. Compared to him, they were indeed no match.
Not to mention that the other party has long since traversed the river of time, and his true form is already at the Quasi-Emperor level, even belonging to the top tier among Quasi-Emperors.
"Hmph, it's better than not knowing anything at all."
After holding back for a long time, Mingyue finally sneered.
She can't compare to Shi Miao, but she's definitely better than Li Hao now.
The other party, relying on his natural talent, refused to become a disciple of the Immortal Emperor and did not come to the Primordial True Realm, unaware that he was wasting his own potential.
Li Hao glanced at the two of them, too lazy to argue, and turned away, ignoring them completely.
Jianxin replied, "If you still harbor resentment towards our master for what happened back then, then come find us. We welcome your challenge anytime you are ready to catch up with us in terms of cultivation level!"
Li Hao, who had already turned around to study the cracked stone wall of laws, suddenly had a cold, chilling glint in his eyes.
He turned his head, his gaze seemingly capable of freezing a person, and stared at Kenshin, saying:
"You're not qualified to pay this debt!"
Kenshin's expression changed slightly, and Mingyue's expression also changed; both of them were shocked and angry.
"Young man, don't speak so rudely. Do you want to settle scores with the Supreme One?"
At this moment, the old man carrying the wood-chopping knife behind the two raised his head slightly, revealing a pair of aged faces under his bamboo hat. His eyes narrowed slightly, flashing with an extremely cold and sharp light, and he exuded a powerful aura of a celestial king.
The other people who were meditating were all startled by the conflict and turned to look.
"Quack."
One of the young men who had been pondering the matter suddenly opened his eyes and snorted coldly.
His realm was clearly at the peak of the Immortal Lord realm, and his whole body exuded an extremely restrained yet domineering aura.
Behind him stood a white-robed, bald old man with his eyes closed like a monk. When he heard the young man speak, he slowly opened his eyes and swept them toward Li Hao and Jian Xin with a warning look in his eyes.
The old man carrying the wood-chopping knife ignored him and stared at Li Hao, saying, "Young friend, why aren't you saying anything?"
As he spoke, his aura grew increasingly oppressive, as if he wanted Li Hao to kneel down, carrying a strong sense of threat.
Li Hao gave him a deep look, but ignored his imposing manner. Instead, he took a step forward and said sternly, "What? Do I need your permission, you old dog, to settle accounts with the Supreme One?!"
His voice was loud and unyielding, and his eyes were fixed directly on the other person.
These words surprised many onlookers, even those who were not from the Southern Region, who knew who the "Supreme One" referred to.
The young man before me actually said he wanted to settle accounts with the Supreme Being?
That's a Celestial Emperor!
The old man carrying the wood-chopping knife's eyes turned cold, radiating a chilling killing intent, and he seemed to tighten his grip on the knife.
Without saying a word, Li Hao immediately summoned the Xuan Turtle Emperor Soul. With this incomplete imperial weapon in hand, plus the Life-Severing Realm Core given to him by his senior brother, he was truly fearless.
"Try it yourself. If it weren't for the restrictions imposed by the laws here, do you really think you wouldn't be the one to lose?"
Shi Miao stared at the other person, her pupils turning into a seven-colored hazy light, and her body radiating a strong power of time.
The old man carrying the wood-chopping knife's eyes changed slightly, his aura subsided, and he coldly snorted, "If it weren't for the restrictions on fighting on Chaos Star, I would have used the two of you as a sacrifice for my knife today."
Shi Miao sneered, too lazy to argue with him.
Combat is forbidden here; otherwise, she would never have allowed Li Hao to be humiliated. Even if it meant sacrificing her own strength, she would have killed him.
However, she had already remembered the other person.
"If you're not going to fight, then shut up and stop making a racket!"
Beside him, the young man at the peak of the Immortal Lord realm frowned, looking extremely impatient.
Mingyue glared at the other person, "What's it to you? If you think it's noisy, then go away."
The young man at the peak of the Immortal Lord realm stared at her, then sneered slightly, "If you're so capable, do you dare to accept my challenge?"
Mingyue's expression changed slightly. The other party was a Perfected Immortal Lord, and had been cultivating here for who knows how long. Even if she was a direct disciple of the Supreme One, she might not be able to compare to him.
"Once I catch up in terms of cultivation level, let's see if I dare to do it," she sneered.
The young man, who had reached the peak of the Immortal Lord realm, gave a slight sneer and didn't bother to say anything more.
Kenshin ignored those around him and stared at Li Hao, saying, "Are you really courting death? Your swordsmanship, your talent—if you had been willing to humble yourself even slightly back then, you wouldn't be in this state today."
He felt a little sorry for Li Hao. Although they had different positions, Li Hao's swordsmanship had impressed him in the Southern Region.
Upon hearing this, Li Hao couldn't help but laugh, but it was a cold laugh:
"You always advise people to bow their heads, so why don't you advise your master to raise his hand a little higher? Why do you have to force other people's heads down?"
Before Kenshin could speak, he said coldly, "But there's no need to persuade me anymore. That hand that's being pressed down, I will cut it off with my own hands sooner or later!!"
Mingyue was furious. "My master is an Immortal Emperor. Do you really think you can stand against him? Do you know how difficult it is to become an Immortal Emperor? Even if you become an Immortal Emperor, you might not be a match for my master!"
Li Hao glanced at her but didn't say anything. The Immortal Emperor was indeed far away from him now, but fortunately, he was taking firm steps towards that goal, one step at a time!
He turned away, ignoring them; arguing was pointless.
Jianxin gave Li Hao a deep look, raised his hand to stop his junior sister Mingyue from continuing, and shook his head, saying, "The closer he gets to that realm, the more he will feel what despair is. There's no need to say more."
After saying that, he turned to Li Hao and said, "I'll say it again: whenever you catch up with us, you can challenge me anytime. I'll settle the score!"
Li Hao's gaze fell on the cracked stone wall, and he stopped saying things like "you are not worthy" and focused his attention on things that were meaningful.
Regardless of whether Li Hao listened or not, Kenshin sat down again with Mingyue.
Li Hao stared at the cracks in the laws. He had mastered the Nine Orders Great Dao and could deduce the origins of many of the Great Daos within them, so it was not difficult for him to comprehend them.
However, the chaotic power within the cracks in the laws, like ever-changing flowing water, encompasses extremely complex characteristics of the laws and contains many traces of the Great Dao.
Li Hao stared intently, and slowly, he began to understand.
I've already learned the basics; would you like to include it?
Suddenly, a notification popped up in front of me.
